I'd rather play the Rays in the 1st rd than Angels or Boston. Last night was pretty impressive but Percival has to be a concern. In a 5 game series it's really whose the hotter team not necessarily whose the better team. Though winning the division is a big deal so they don't have to play LAA in the 1st rd.
MLB has to do something about the Florida franchises though. It was about a week or so ago and the Marlins had what 600 fans? The Rays aren't drawing fans and they're winning. I know the stadium is considered a dump and the Marlins have a stadium like an hour away. Though c'mon it's a disgrace.
we've drawn a hell of a lot more then last year. no we arent selling out, but fans coming out is going to take more then 1 winning season with an older stadium and newer franchise.
